I can share my dislike of them with you. There's plenty to spare.

could be much worse, i suppose. it's actually a decent list that looks pretty much like one this board would probably come up with.

i mean, they've got DBT in there guys.

Yeah this is pretty much an Obner incarnate list.

I'm not surprised though. The Spoon brand has come to represent quality over the last 10 years and it looks like this list was compiled based on a high level of consistency, not necessarily the "greatest".

DBT is my band of the decade. But, hey, that's just me.

4 of my favorite albums of all time in one decade plus EPs and Singles...I'd say they got it right.

For the most part I find it hard to take these critics seriously who write for jerkwater zines and websites. In the case of Spoon, they may have gotten it right. Consistency is the key. DBT is certainly a close second.

I would agree that they are definitely the most consistent. Most consistent doesn't mean best to me though.
